One thing I miss is all the industry and logistics stuff Legends gave. Theres was multiple different mobile shipyards that the Republic and Empire used to support its fleets.

I miss the OG Thrawn, in Zahn's legend's books Thrawn was more tactical and logical in the way he did things but also had that ongoing mystery.

However I definitely think they went about continuing the Star Wars story in the absolute worst way. They should've used the now non-canon EU as a rough blueprint in how to continue the story.

[@birdmonster4586]

Jorj Car'Das, is a character that is pretty small in Legends but he had an impact for me. He spent over a decade with the AiTing monks was able to cultivate some connection to the force. He was able to teleport a cup or plate a short distance. It has been a while since I've read those books. So it is quite rare, but someone through training and dedication might be able to strengthen their connection to the force. Which is something we see with the Jedi and Sith. Yes, they take those naturally strong with the force, but through training, discipline and teaching they strengthen that connection. An individual's connection to the force can grow, stagnate or atrophy depending on how their circumstances. This is pretty in keeping with some of the ideas and origins of the force being related to Eastern concepts like Chi/Ki. Where one needs to cultivate a stronger Chi/Ki through hard work and dedication. Personally I like the idea that someone under the right circumstances could "Become force sensitive." You don't need to be born special and/or have "The blood of kings" to be a force user. Hard work and training can get you there too and that's a cool idea to me.

[@josephjones9904]

Jorj is an example of great character development, he went from a nobody to being the master of intelligence, while his sensitivity to the force is a bit iffy it tells a great story of how someone can gain, abuse and hand over power as a redemption over decades

Interdictors weren’t just used to pull ships out of hyperspace, they also were used to prevent ships from leaving by hyperspace. And during the Corellian Crisis, attempts to use hyperspace jumps would disable the drive for a time, either forcing them to travel through the system at sublight or to improvise by outfitting cruisers or carriers (I forget exactly) with multiple hyperdrives to make micro-jumps to reach the inner system.

Garm is my favorite Legends character so i would love a version of him closer to his Legends portrayal.

I've always preferred the smaller warships to the Heavy Cruiser type, Star Destroyer type, or larger craft. And IMO there would be far more shipyards able to build them leading to a wider variety of classes IMO. For lore in general I would love if they brought back the rebellion's employment of Privateers.

[@meatbyproducts]

@redleaderantilles1263 it was in many stories and in source books for the RPG. Legends was far more consistent than most other sci-fi settings and WAY more consistent than Disney Wars. It was also in the Decipher card game. The Jabiim comics are post the prequels and from 99 on Lucas destroyed the legends and the continuity. Like Boba Fett was cool and had great back stories until Lucas scrapped all the canon that had been Lucas Arts approved. You have pre 87, basically a couple Han Solo books, Ewok movies, the OG Trilogy, and a few other things. You have the golden era 87-99 The RPG and the vast majority of the books. Then you have 99-2012 the jumbled mess Lucas made with the prequels and ditching everything that had been approved. Lastly you have 2012 to now and that is Disney Wars. 77-99 are the best years for movies, stories, canon, and continuity. From 99 on, there was not a care in the world about continuity.

For characters, this could be hard for me, because I can easily just "The EU characters are better that the CST characters...", and I don't want to do that, but there were several side characters I'd love to see make an appearance. When I was watching Rebels, and they had to go Dave an Admiral's son, they showed a YT-2400 ship, and there were actually several minutes of excitement, where I thought "They did me a solid, and reintroduced Thrawn, so there's no reason that CAN'T be Dash Rendar? That's the right class ship for the Outrider, so why not!?😁" It obviously wasn't, and we didn't get discount Solo, and I lived, because this would have been a few years before he was THAT Dash Rendar, but I hoped? I was always a fan of many of the side characters, like Xizor, Zakarisz Ghent, and the like, and they didn't need inclusions on the sane scale as Thrawn, but could be wonderful little nostalgia drips for aging fans, like me. For tech, I'm going to go with Human Replica Droids. I like Star Wars for the Force, the tech, and the aliens, and some droids make great characters. A droid that can actually put on the appearance of an organic, and be convincing, is cool, and I'm sure Guri was no small part in selling it for me. Wookiees are renowned for their might, so to have Guri dupe Chewbacca enough to let her get close, and then use her super-strength to snap his arm like a twig, was wonderful, even if a lot of fans might not have appreciated Chewie getting done dirty, Iike that. She even went on to have a compelling story afterward, but didn't have to be the only HRD, as a few other "discount" models were later made. For lore, I don't really know. I want to say an improved Jedi Order, where Luke saw the good, but also acknowledged the faults, in the old Order, and tried to change them. When he acknowledged that Jedi needed to be alive, and do some things the old code forbade, or let them make their own mistakes, but still have room for salvation, instead of just saying "You CAN'T!", or "Once you start down the dark path...", or even just try to hide itcall from them, and keep them ignorant, like thecEmperir, in 40k.

I really think mandos new naboo fighter is cool, but you could fit like three of those in the back of a razorcrest, and successfully deploy then if stacked on one another with their weird repulse lift tech. 1 tiny ship is suddenly a fleet of fast, hyperspace capable brawlers. Its a real shame that we dont get more small operations in live action such as those seen in rebels with the crew of the ghost.

Thank you!

I've actually been thinking about a sort of "inverse-interdiction" for my own setting. Basically, it would keep entities from teleporting into an area of "scrambling phase", affording a state of safety and security in a world where opposing forces could simply teleport into an area like the demons from Doom. Specifically, the technology would be largely deployed to prevent raids by a major slaving power in the multiverse, though its origins would be traced back to the wars of the Elder Races back in antiquity. As for characters who I'd want to see come back in the Stars War? Kyle "Mothafuckin'" Katarn, the Doomguy of Star Wars. Hell, it's canon that he fought in the Yuuzhan Vong war and the Dark Nest Crisis, so if Didney wanted to let people work with the Legends timeline again, it'd make sense to bring Kyle back to fight the Vong and Killik in a duology of Nu-Doomy "Dark Forces" shooters.

I miss: Baron Soontir Fel The TIE Avenger Believable representation of the Imperial Remnant

[@gurbulflap]

Could not agree more about Talon Card.

[@at0micwaste]

Don't think I've heard rhe word "interdiction" since I was playing Elite Dangerous. Interdiction was a struggle between the ship attempting to interdict, and the ship attempting to steady it's course and not get pulled out of supercruise.

[@planet-p6f]

I'd start with Aetheric control surfaces, & not being able to hyper jump in a gravity well (incl. planetary proximity),

[@diamondq7s124]

I know the Interdiction in Rebels was to easy to destroy sadly but in how it is used sounds like a dangerous ship to go through.

[@BennyFromFalloutNewVegas]

Luuke Skywalker needs to be on the big screen.

[@aster4jaden]

You could never have too many Superweapons in Star Wars.

[@cotybowman8825]

The little piece of tech I miss from Legends is George Lucas. That computer had all the answers.

[@jessecarozza6745]

Like making Darth Maul and Darth Talon lovers?

[@cotybowman8825]

@@jessecarozza6745 lol. Hey, at least he didn't create The Acolyte.

[@Gigas0101]

Jarjar is the key

[@blackc1479]

I miss seeing the NR and imperial remnant evolving and eventually making room for each other. Sorta. The legends noghri just being themselves. And honestly, the sun crusher. It was so stupid OP that it became the avatar of actual plot armor. I understand why people dont like it because its so absurd, but that was also what made it goofy fun. Oh yeah, i also always wanted to see a live action MT-AT.

[@NRRenggli]

If Andor gets enough seasons, I kinda want to see Syril Karn evolve through circumstances into Talon Karrde. I can still hear Denis Lawson pronouncing it as ‘Talon Card’ on my old audiobooks on cassette tape. Who also by the way voiced the best Grand Admiral Thrawn 😁

[@magmapixel8627]

Andor unfortunately is only getting 2 seasons

[@nicks8208]

Master Sebatyne not sure about the tech, there is so much good stuff out there from the New Jedi order force guided torpedoes to Wusher's brewing gear. For lore I like the Jedi faction that refused to use lightsabers

[@PoeticTwist]

I personally would like to see is, maybe, some of the EU that was post Imperial into the current post Imperial in the current canon. One thing I would like to see is some stuff between say Luke and Ahsoka, as well as finding ither Force sensitivrs to train. as well as the X-wing series, etc. Make them into series. Could bring more EU into canon.

[@departed402]

Eck! You definitely gave the impression you don't know how the Grysk's interdiction devices work.

[@quantummaniac5]

Talon Karrde is my all time favorite non-force-user character.

[@derrickdinwiddie8759]

I miss Kard as well. I also miss Corran Horn... he is my favorite character by far.

[@Kenibus]

#AskEck are there any non-lightsaber or blaster weapons that interest you? Like force pikes, Adas’ battle axe, etc.

[@meatbyproducts]

Everything in The Young Han Solo Trilogy. The Solo Movie took a steaming dump on the work of AC Crispen.

[@nathanfee9644]

Everyone leaving questions to Eck.... Ecks response- "Who am I? One name you might have for me is The World, or you might call me The Universe, or perhaps God, or perhaps the Truth. I am all and I am one, so of course this also means that I am you." @DMBLaan leaves the RIGHT question... Ecks response- ""YOU'VE DONE IT! THAT'S THE RIGHT ANSWER! GOOD JOB! YOU BEAT ME!" " You get an 8 minute video! Nice! LOL. Thanks Eck. Enjoyed this.

[@CloneScavengerVulpin8389]

I hope garm bel iblis appears in andor season 2 and they show him and mon mothma interacting.

[@ElateRug]

#AskEck what is the best frigate?

[@kenasuma61]

Yay the intro

[@fatdood]

Why is there no kyber powered wrist shields

[@matthewreed7159]

I don't want to see anything more introduced by Disney...

[@VZ95]

#AskEck Why doesn't Star Wars invest more on its conlangs (such as Huttese or Bocce), making more detailed and official grammars much like Star Trek did?

[@VZ95]

Asking more for your opinion actually. I think Star Wars fans would love stuff like that, but I haven't seen that sort of push from LucasFilm or Disney.

[@BugRib]

Corellian Trilogy is vastly underrated. And so is the later Han Solo trilogy.
